In this paper, we are interested to determine the carbon dioxide pressure in the arterial blood through radial velocity difference. The blood was modeled as a two phase mixture (an aqueous carbon dioxide solution with carbon dioxide gas) by Drift flux model and the Young-Laplace equation. The distributions of mixture velocities determined from the considered model permitted the calculation of t...

Horizontal hydraulic transport of ice particles suspended in water which is used in cooling systems has several advantages, such as its friendliness to the environment and its relatively low operation and maintenance costs. In this study, as a first approximation one dimensional model is developed. Simulation model calculates the pressure drop of the flow of solid-water two-phase mixture inside...

This paper presents a deterministic mathematical model, which simulates the time-dependent behavior of an oil spill near coastal zones. The model solves the full set of partial-differential equations that govern transient, two-phase, turbulent flow and heat/mass transfer phenomena. It is used for predicting the consequences of hypothetical oil spills that could occur near a coastal area of grea...

A high temperature and shear rate capillary viscometer has been designed, constructed and recently commissioned. This device will be used to measure the viscosity of semi-solid metals under the high temperature and shear rate conditions, similar to those found in industry. Design criteria for the device included a requirement for a highly controllable temperature (±1oC) up to 650oC, capability ...

Abstract. We consider a system of N phase oscillators having randomly distributed natural frequencies and diagonalizable interactions among the oscillators. We show that, in the limit of N → ∞, all solutions of such a system are incoherent with probability one for any strength of coupling, which implies that there is no sharp transition from incoherence to coherence as the coupling strength is ...
